In main-memory databases, the number of processor cache misses has a critical impact on the performance of the system. Cacheconscious indices are designed to improve performance b...
Whenever XML data must be shared by heterogeneous applications, transformations between different applicationspecific XML formats are necessary. The state-of-the-art method transf...
XML parsing is generally known to have poor performance characteristics relative to transactional database processing. Yet, its potentially fatal impact on overall database perfor...
